The Story Behind Samaha Perfumes

Samaha Perfumes is rooted in a rich blend of cultures. One founder was born in Pakistan and raised in Canada. The other, born in Saudi Arabia and raised in Dubai, brought with her the traditions, rituals, and elegance of Arabian perfumery. Together, we carried with us not only passports but the scents of home, oudh rising in the air, warm vanilla from family kitchens, floral oils worn during celebrations.

When we arrived in Canada, something felt missing in the shelves of mainstream fragrances. The depth, the spiritual essence, the layered storytelling found in Middle Eastern perfumery just wasn’t there. And so, Samaha Perfumes was created.
